From The Workbench - Alternative + Renewable Energy Blog Valuable information for do-it-yourselfers interested in the latest in alternative + renewable energy

Look out world, Honda is getting ready to revolutionize the auto industry.  Keep your fingers crossed that when this happens, not only will other companies follow suit, but the planet will benefit just as much as all the rest of our pocketbooks.  Every finger and toe on my body is crossed, how about you?

Apparently the rising, and rising, and rising even further, fuel prices have led Honda to re-think their ideas on alternative energy vehicles, and as such, they have started producing a car that runs on the Honda’s FCX Clarity fuel cell.  While it’s only being made in Japan right now, I have full confidence that it will make its way stateside before too long, and it’s about time.

Rumor has it that GM is about to be on board with a recent mass-order of lithium ion batteries.  Word on my block is that celebrities are going to have first crack at these (which is ludicris) and then eventually the trickle down will occur and we’ll all be riding cheap.

Keep your ears open and stay tuned, I’ll track this one for us.
